Merge tag 'trace-v5.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"New tracing features:
- The ring buffer is no longer disabled when reading the trace file.
The trace_pipe file was made to be used for live tracing and
reading as it acted like the normal producer/consumer. As the trace
file would not consume the data, the easy way of handling it was to
just disable writes to the ring buffer.
This came to a surprise to the BPF folks who complained about lost
events due to reading. This is no longer an issue. If someone wants
to keep the old disabling there's a new option "pause-on-trace"
that can be set.
- New set_ftrace_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will not be
traced by the function tracer.
Similar to set_ftrace_pid, which makes the function tracer only
trace those tasks with PIDs in the file, the set_ftrace_notrace_pid
does the reverse.
- New set_event_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will cause events
not to be traced if triggered by a task with a matching PID.
Similar to the set_event_pid file but will not be traced. Note,
sched_waking and sched_switch events may still be traced if one of
the tasks referenced by those events contains a PID that is allowed
to be traced.
Tracing related features:
- New bootconfig option, that is attached to the initrd file.
If bootconfig is on the command line, then the initrd file is
searched looking for a bootconfig appended at the end.
- New GPU tracepoint infrastructure to help the gfx drivers to get
off debugfs (acked by Greg Kroah-Hartman)
And other minor updates and fixes"
